    Morning.

    Sunday.

    A dream about the hydraulic clutch operating lever on the Ford Zodiac Mk IV. .

    Dry.

    Grey.

    Wanly sunny.

    Misty.

    Cloudy.

    Cool in here at 19.8 deg, 21 deg in the kitchen, 18.5 deg in the leanto.

    1019 mBar, 30.09 in Hg, 764.3 Torr, 14.779 psi, (up from 1015 last night), 71% RH (Lidl electric).

    Meanwhile on the 26th of October 2019 there was some sort of rugger competition under way, whereas I was more innerested in going to that Swansea to watch Shaun the Sheep in Farmageddon and buying more Glengettie teabags before I ran out of same, plus next door's cat wasn't using the litter tray much to my amazement, LM had had a nice evening out, and xogg had found a £10 note when clearing a footpath, which was nice.

      Morning all
      Lots of gardening yesterday and more to come today. Main mower deck belt went ping again and when I changed it, the replacement kept jumping off. Getting tired of repairing it.

        Morning denizens

        Sunny start out, and it's going to be a warm one too: already 18°C, with an expected high of 24°. The barometers are resurgent at 1014/1022mB

        More Monkey Life this morning!

              Morning all

              Blue sky with wispy fluff. Currently 22 degrees with a high of 26 expected. Barometer up to 1023 mBar.

              Off to visit Mum today. We finally sorted a gardener which she'll be pleased about.

                Are you mad? My gardener knows as much about the mechanics of mowers as I do about moderating internet forums!

                    The mundane laundry is on

                    Lunch was some KFC popcorn chicken that they included for free, reheated in the air fryer as it had gone a bit soggy in the fridge overnight. Nice enough as a snack, though not very filling so I might have something else in a bit

                      It was a hot and sticky ride down to Sussex. I think the aircon in my car is kaput. More expense!

                      Mum was ok, new notes in the kitchen claiming things have been stolen. Evidently the steak knives have been found and it's now spectacles that are missing.

                      HWMBO greeted me with a cooling G&T on my arrival home.
